Google Checkout is out. Both the merchant and buyers have to reside in US for now. The cost is 2% and 20 cents by transaction. Cheaper than PayPal, but you can't use Checkout to transfer money from one account to another one. May be soon.

Checkout have a nice integration with Adwords users too. For every $1 the merchant spend on AdWords, they process $10 in sales for free.

Google seem to go on the Affiliate Network Market. It will bring a lot of new customers who where afraid of the clicks fraud problem. Nice move and it will be easier for both publishers and merchants to see what make a good ROI between CPC (cost-per-click), CPM (cost per 1,000 impressions) and CPA (cost-per-action).

A lot of them will have huge surprise !!! Hope Google analytic will implement the CPA in his product soon.
